For adult men, some male friends may have taken aphrodisiac drugs, as these are health supplements that can help men cope with sexual dysfunction issues. However, many people have questions about the safety of taking aphrodisiacs. In fact, men should never take such medications blindly, because aphrodisiac drugs are not suitable for all men; otherwise, it could harm their health.
The safety of some aphrodisiac medications is indisputable, and the common side effects are usually mild and temporary, not affecting the continued use of these drugs. Some side effects only occur when taken in large doses, such as facial flushing, dizziness, headaches, nasal congestion, and indigestion. Rare side effects include temporary changes in visual color, increased sensitivity to light, and blurred vision. In reality, many symptoms among the side effects are similar to the sexual reactions that occur during orgasm.
In very few cases, taking aphrodisiac drugs can lead to **abnormal erections** (lasting for several hours). If an erection lasts longer than 4 hours, one should drink plenty of water and seek medical attention immediately. If any adverse reactions not mentioned in the medication instructions occur or if you wish to know more information, you should also consult a doctor.
As for the life safety concerns many people have, they are not baseless. Therefore, before using aphrodisiac drugs, one mainly needs to understand whether the user has any serious underlying conditions, especially if the user can handle the significant energy and physical expenditure required for sexual activity.
It has now been proven that taking certain aphrodisiac drugs together with nitrates (a type of medication used to treat coronary heart disease, such as nitroglycerin, and others) can cause a sharp drop in blood pressure. Patients who regularly or intermittently take nitrates are strictly prohibited from using aphrodisiac medications at the same time. If you are unfamiliar with the medications in your home, it may be difficult to determine whether certain medications belong to the nitrate category based on their names alone; thus, you should consult a doctor.
In marital activities, men expend considerable energy and physical strength, placing a heavy burden on the heart. Thus, before using aphrodisiac medications, please confirm whether you have any heart-related diseases and whether you can bear the burdens brought by marital life. Never sacrifice concern for your life in exchange for the benefits of marital intimacy; after all, life is far more important than love.
If you have ever experienced any of the following conditions or diseases, please inform your doctor so that the expert can help you determine whether you can use aphrodisiac medications, how to use them, and what precautions to take. These conditions and diseases include: heart problems (angina, chest pain, heart failure, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, etc.), stroke, hypertension or hypotension, pigmentary retinopathy, kidney disease, liver disease, blood disorders (such as sickle cell anemia, leukemia), allergy to the chemical components of aphrodisiacs, **deformities, cavernosal fibrosis, past occurrences of abnormal erections (erections lasting more than 4 hours), peptic ulcers, or other bleeding symptoms, and currently taking other medications.
Men who wish to perform better in marital life and ensure stronger erections are undoubtedly not without reason, but one should also pay attention to employing the most scientific methods. If one’s body does not permit, taking medications blindly could harm health and would not be worth the risk.
